Freerunning: Find Your Way,
This review is from: Freerunning: Find Your Way (Hardcover)
`Freerunning' is a well presented book showing Sebastien Foucan performing various freerunning stunts, interspersed with his thoughts on freerunning and life. If you've read various martial arts, philosophy, zen or spiritual books before then the various quotes won't be that enlightening. Saying that, it is good to see what influenced Sebastien and to have a collection of these ideas in one place and illustrated with such amazing and inspiring imagery. Freerunning is all about finding your own path in life and using your body to it's full potential and this book echoes that message perfectly. Not that deep, but great to flick through and read regardless.
